1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

purposeLong noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified as an important class of noncoding RNAs that are deeply involved in multiple biological processes in tumorigenesis. This study is to investigate the critical roles and biological function of lncRNA growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) in tumorigenesis of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). PATIENTS AND

methodsA total of 59 samples of LSCC and paired adjacent tissue, as well as corresponding clinicopathological information were collected. GAS5 expression in both LSCC tissues and human SUN1076 and SNU899 cell lines were analyzed by Real-time quantitative RT-PCR method. Ectopic expression of GAS5 by vector transfection in LSCC cell lines and followed by in vitro experiments was to investigate the critical roles and function of GAS5 in LSCC. Cell Counting Kit 8 (CCK8) assay and PE/7AAD Annexin V Apoptosis analysis was to evaluate cell proliferation ability and cell apoptosis. Co-transfection of GAS5 and miR-21 was to explore the interaction between GAS5 and miR-21 in LSCC. BAX and CDK6 protein level were analyzed by western blot method.

resultsThis study demonstrated that GAS5 was significantly downregulated in LSCC tissue and human LSCC cell lines. GAS5 levels were correlated with the clinicopathological features of LSCC patients. In addition, the ectopic expression of GAS5 significantly inhibited cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis. Co-expression analyses indicated that GAS5 is negatively correlated with miR-21 in LSCC tissues. Overexpression of miR-21 eliminated GAS5-mediated cell apoptosis and proliferation suppression. Furthermore, GAS5, which upregulated BAX mRNA expression and downregulated CDK6 mRNA expression, was reversed by ectopic expression of miR-21.

conclusionGAS5 suppresses LSCC progression through the negative regulation of miR-21 and its targets involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis, indicating that GAS5 may serve as a biomarker and potential target for LSCC therapy.
